On the subject of "Question about PC Network Mailorder",
galvin@yale-celed.UUCP (Peter Galvin) says:

$ I seem to recall that the Mail Order company PC Network had some serious
$ problems (including non-shipment of goods) and went Chapter 11.  Now
$ they are back, and are one of the few companies offering reasonable 
$ prices and a 10-day money-back guarantee.  Has anyone tried them
$ recently?  Has anyone taken them up on their 10 day return policy?
$ (I'm thinking about getting an Intel Inboard 386/AT but I'm not 
$ positive that it will work in my AT clone).

I don't know if they're back but why would you want to deal with
a company that has such a horrible reputation?  Deal with a reputable
company and you'll be happy.  If you want to get the last 3% off
the price, you get less than you pay for.

I recommend PC Connection in New Hampshire.  Their prices are always
pennies above the lowest you can find, and they are a perfect
company to deal with in every way.
